Caught up in your revelry and your mirth
Your weapon to ignore what's happening on earth
We have no ties that bind us
The blood running through our veins murderous
Threatening to **** my spirit if I stay
But try as I might, fractures still display
What did you hate?
What inside me couldn't you face?
You repel truth like it will **** your soul
But don't you realize that's what will make you whole?
Slicing out my part of the sibling pie
And you still expect to see eye to eye?
Lashing out when I use my voice
Thinking you can steal my choice
Your feelings were clear
When you told me nobody wants me here
So you hide in your pain pointing to me as the cue
How could you think this brokenness could be glued?
Your cowardly attempt at peace
Masquerades a fear of openness
You ostracize me and tell me I ran
But reconciliation was never your plan
You judge me for being distant
Spewing cruelties at me like a hypocrite
I'm not someone who interests you
Be brave enough to own that view
Remember that you reap what you sow
And don't expect me to be part of that show
I'm raising the white flag on the sea of my pain
My vessel is sailing to a land I can claim
I may never again come to your shores
Neither revenge nor unity is what I'm looking for
It is for my soul to be still
And to be where hearts want to be filled
But you need to know
My light will always show
I'm purging the shadows from my DNA
My story, our story on full display
